Leadership Lessons from the Coop

Four hard-won leadership lessons from Judith Rudge, VP of Talent Acquisition at Optimum — on building teams strong enough to lead without you.

  • Rotate leadership deliberately — step your top performers back on purpose so others get room to rise.
  • Hire for disruption, then trust the team — bring in different thinkers and step back to let them solve friction themselves.
